Friends, family and staff of Gulval School unite!

Friends, family and staff from Gulval School all came together as a united community this week to help improve the school’s outdoor space.

On Saturday friends, family and staff all come together to help bring the schools outdoor space to life. With over 30 people in attendance, there was plenty to do. From weeding, planting, building raised flower beds and painting. The foundations for the schools new poly tunnel were laid and along with a tyre play park too. An area of the playground has had a stage built along with seating.

Principal of Gulval School, Paul Baker, commented “I must say a huge thank you to everyone that helped on the day. It was by far one of the best community, team, family days I have ever experienced. To see the looks on the children’s faces on Monday morning was such a great way to start our week, so many excited children and so many broad smiles.”

This recent effort is just stage one of Paul Bakers vision for the school’s outside space. There are plans for a chicken run, and the school is currently recruiting for student chicken farmers, the eggs the chickens lay will be sold at the school gate with all funds going back into the school. Joining the chickens will be a small animal park which will house rabbits and Guinea pigs, the park is currently being designed by Green Class.
